Kelly Brook ignores social distancing advice by walking side-by-side with her Heart radio co-host

The country went into lockdown on Friday night as the prime minister ramped up plans to deal with the coronavirus pandemic.  

But on Saturday afternoon, Kelly Brook, 40, ignored the government’s social distancing advice (of staying 2 metres apart) by walking side-by-side with her Heart radio co-host Jason King, 45, as they left work at Global studios in London, amid the coronavirus lockdown.

The model appeared to be in good spirits as she strolled along clad in skin-tight jeggings teamed with a grey top and beige biker jacket.

Kelly showcased her curvaceous frame in her smart ensemble, opting for a sensible pair of brogues as her weekend footwear. 

The presenter carried her belongings in a vintage-look doctor’s bag as she chatted to her colleague.

Keeping things simple, Kelly swept her brunette tresses up into a chic ponytail and shielded her eyes with a pair of glamorous shades. 

Her co-host JK cut a more casual figure in beige chinos, with a grey hoody and a padded navy blue sports jacket. 

The outing came just hours after the government told people to ‘stay at home’ in a bid to tackle the current COVID-19 (coronavirus) crisis that has swept the globe.  

The prime minister has warned UK citizens not to leave their homes unless absolutely necessary amid the global pandemic, with the exception of key workers. 

The official advice from the government states: ‘If you meet others when you are outdoors (for example, on a walk) ensure that you stay at least 2 meters away.’ 

Earlier this month, Kelly enjoyed a romantic getaway to the Maldives with her model boyfriend Jeremy Parisi. 

Kelly has been dating Jeremy for five years after kicking off their relationship by flirting via direct message on Instagram.

The couple went public with their relationship in April 2015, and Jeremy now lives with Kelly in her Kent home.
